Contractors must submit material safety data sheets, boiler inspection reports, and cost breakdowns for chemicals and feed rates, and must ensure personnel are located within 100 miles of the facility, wear VA-issued ID badges, check in at the site daily, and follow specific holiday and training protocols. A qualified contract manager must be designated and reachable within one business day, and pre- and post-contract joint inspections of boilers and systems are required.
